Fisherman’s nightmare

[fishinwrench]

I'd love to possess the skills that whitewater guys have, but I've never had the balls to play chicken with fast and heavy water.  I just have too much respect (fear?) of it.

While that is a pretty neat trick, I believe that would be illegal on TR. First off, those boats need to be 50+ feet away from each other. Second of all, that "start up" would get flagged immediately by Water Patrol when the two boats pass the kayak to get him going. Can only imagine two less skilled boaters attempting this and running over the poor 'yaker.

I don't see anything "illegal" going on.    Is there a 50' law on TR?

Think the kayaker wanted to be there.

The kayaker is actually Erik Jackson (owner and founder of Jackson Kayaks) he definitely wanted to be there that's for sure! I am not sure I could trust one, yet alone two boat operators to make this happen. 

In Green Bay I saw a bunch of guys doing this with one boat and a wakeboard.  The guy would just ride the wake until he fell or got tired.  It was pretty  badass!

And the Darwin Award goes to...

If I didn't already know what the Darwin Award was I'd say that that's just plain stupid.

Yankees fan that doesn't speak English though so there's that.........
